PUD turbine project may be delayed OF THE MINER
NEWPORT – Crews at Box Canyon Dam have been gearing up for the first new turbine that is to be installed there over the next year. But the unit is behind schedule at the manufacturer, and the project may have to be delayed a year.

A northern pike fishery is growing in the Pend Oreille River. Two fishing tournaments are held on the river a year.

“Until the research is done, we won’t have regulations implemented on pike in the river.” Keith Hoffman Gone Fishin’ Lure Co.
he said. “I would like to see a trophy fishery preserved for many years to come. If managed properly, a trophy fishery for pike as well as the other highly targeted fish in the river is possible.” The tournament consisted of 15 anglers and six people serving as judges, two of which were biologists from the Kalispel Tribe of Indians.
Several fish were hooked but only two were landed. The water had warmed enough to put the fish in the spawn, Hoffman said, making them nearly impossible to catch, especially using artificial lures only. The winning fish went to Ryan Quaintance. It measured 25 inches. The other fish caught was even smaller at 22 inches, by Hoffman’s grandfather Tom McManus. Hoffman said he plans to hold the tournament again next year, at a later date to avoid spawning. He said this was a learning year, and he’ll take what he learned and use it next year. Fishing on the Pend Oreille River is open year-round, but a license is required from the state you are fishing in.

PRIEST LAKE – The Bonner County Waterways Advisory Committee is meeting Thursday, Sept. 16 at 9 a.m. to discuss the possibility of a no-wake zone in all of Upper Priest Lake. The meeting will be held at the firehousesnowmobile groomers building on Dickensheet Road, just south of Coolin. Any decisions made by the committee are only recommendations and have to be approved by the Bonner County commissioners. Some area residents are suggesting the no wake zone that is currently in effect in the Priest Lake Thorofare be expanded to all of Upper Priest Lake. There is already a “no water skiing” rule, but that excludes wakeboard-

ing and jet skis. The U.S. Forest Service already has designated the area as “scenic,” protecting the area from logging and other development that would change the views and nature of the area, but the water is out of the Forest Service’s jurisdiction. The proposed no-wake zone would not prohibit motorized boats from entering Upper Priest Lake. It would just reduce the allowed speed limit. The thorofare is a 3-mile stretch of water that connects Priest Lake to Upper Priest Lake. Erosion has threatened the sides of the water passage and study of the area has been completed over the last several years to see how to preserve its condition. Motorized vehicles are not allowed in the area, so access is limited to foot, bike or boat.

SPOKANE – Northern pike are becoming a successful sport fishery in the Pend Oreille River, and tournaments are being held a couple times a year. Most recently, Keith Hoffman of Gone Fishin’ Lure Co. of Spokane, held a tournament April 18-19 at Box Canyon Dam. He said it was a partial success, but the weather wasn’t as warm as he had hoped. Hoffman said he held the tournament not to make a profit, but to raise money to put into research of northern pike on the river. “Until the research is done, we won’t have regulations implemented on pike in the river,”
